My take on the match here

Mountainlad

Dan is not coming back, I won't believe anyone who says it even if Dan tells me himself. Rightfully so, his race is run. I appreciate the great things he did for Waterford in his peak but people have to accept that all good things must come to an end.

Ha ha, I mostly agree with you. I think it would be a different matter if we had a young team shorn of experience, and would benefit from a bit of experience in the dressing room. That said, I do not see too many options at full forward when Shane Walsh isn't there, so if he were interested and willing to play a restricted role, think he could be an effective impact sub at full forward.

In any case, the man well deserves his retirement, so people speculating on him coming back, I think we could do without.

is it just me or does John sexton always have it for Waterford ?

Very pleased to hear Power hasn't left the panel. Hopefully he will start now in the next game.

Id love to know who your sources are..

For starters Mullane announced publicly himself on RTE Radio 1 last month that hed be back after paddys weekend, but thanks all the same
Power just missed a couple trainings because he had a thesis to hand up for college and was given permission to do so. this was blown out of all proportion as confirmed by Michael Ryan
Noel Connors could miss the rest of the league, but will be back for the championship as confirmed by.... noel connors

Use your head now why would Scully come out an say what really happened with power.. he'd be up to his balls in criticism from every one,I agree blown out of proportion but it happened. As for Noel he has a bulging disc which is effecting the sciatic nerve so he's not out of trouble yet I said he might miss season which could be the case if he needs the op. As for Mullane coming back or redser as we call him, did I claim to be the one who broke the news? just simply stating a fact. I am no bull****ter I could tell ye allsorts what's going on but what's the point.. My source is 110% yours by the sounds of it, is the Media i.e rte radio an Wlr fm but hey who's to know.. I'm sure at the end of the day we all want the same thing..

deisebhoy17

Any word on a team for sunday?

Hope to see a few changes. Hope Power gets a try in goals aswell give him 2 games at least the same as Iggy got

Tuesdays and Fridays at 7 in Carraiganore. They'll be out there tonight, as will the U21's.

mccarthy37

Well do we have any chance on Sunday against Tipp, our confidence seems to be at an all time low it would be brilliant if we could get a win in Semple even a good showing would go a long way to restoring our pride. I wonder will many travel up fingers crossed for now. Club finals and rugby tomorrow should be a great day of sport and then Sunday whatever that will hold, hope it will be a great game.

They only train two nights a week?

Well yeah but I'm sure the other nights are spent in the gym or other types of training and then a match at the weekend. I believe that's what most counties do.

I want to bang my head off the table having seen that lineup. Surely they won't lineup like that positionally

doz

Looks like the experiments with Philip Mahony in the corner and Brick at CF are set to continue...good to see Sully back in the lineup at least. Anyone know why Pauric Mahony is not in, is he on the bench or injured? He's played a lot of hurling recently and could probably do with a breather. Not particularly optimistic about Sunday but at least we are getting closer to having everyone fit.

IanVW

Waterford supporters going to Thurles on Sunday are asked to enter the town from Holy Cross. The St Patrick's Day Parade will take place in Thurles on Sunday and there will be no traffic in the area around the square. Traffic entering from the Holy Cross side will be diverted by the Old Sugar Factory road.

Cake Man

Ah they surely won't line up as named there. 1-7 will most likely stay as is. GOB, Shane Walsh and MON FF line. HF line of probably Maurice, Brick and Molumphy/Sully. POB and Molumphy/Sully midfield. Would have liked to see Ringo corner back and push either Philip or Darragh to wing back instead of Nagle.
Good to see SOK getting a run on goal, had a feeling he'd start as Iggy was peppering him with shots all through training this evening. Not sure if Paudric is injured or what. We'll need MON to be dead accurate from frees as we'll need everything we can get in Thurles. I'll be travelling up in hope more than expectation though.

Deise Doodler

Can'nt believe Jamie Nagle is back in again, starting to feel like a merry go round with himself and dec, wouldnt mind seeing brick back in the middle though and pual o Brien in the corner,but who knows how they will actually line out

Missed 4 frees the last day. When hes missing frees theres not a whole lot of reasons to play him.

Yes, after all, what would be the point of giving a young promising lad some gametime, and letting him grow into the game..

i agree gametime me arse its scores we need if he cant take them step aside let someone who can do it ,do it also he missed one out of his hand in between the frees should have been taken off them after second one dose not contribute enough from play can be thankful he plays for waterford ,cause he would have blown his chance in a kk team long ago ,handy free taker but we have tonnes of them
